The Rock recently showed up at the Bad Blood 2024 Premium Live Event and hinted at being the mastermind behind The Bloodline 2.0. Now, he could deal a blow to Roman Reigns' Original Bloodline by bringing in WWE Legend Paul Heyman as the fifth member of the Solo Sikoa-led team at Survivor Series to mentally throw The OTC off his game.
The Wiseman could finally return with a twist, where he betrays Roman Reigns. He’s good at manipulation, so having him alongside Solo Sikoa could shake Roman’s grip on the match. Plus, Heyman could plant seeds of doubt in The Usos and Sami Zayn’s minds by constantly questioning The OTC's leadership.
It could make them prone to mistakes at crucial moments, possibly leading to their downfall. And just to clarify, the 59-year-old coming in as the fifth member doesn’t mean he’ll be wrestling; he could be there to play mind games with The Original Bloodline.

Meanwhile, Hikuleo could join the side of Sikoa, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu to bolster their physical presence, adding a strong, imposing figure to counter the babyface team. The six-foot-eight-inch Tongan recently signed with the Stamford-based promotion after his time in NJPW.
Combined with Hikuleo's strength, Paul Heyman’s mind games might stir up enough trouble in Roman's camp to give the heel team an advantage. While this is a possibility, it’s still just a theory for now. Let’s see if it happens.
Paul Heyman could say The Rock made him an offer he could not refuse
After the newer version of The Bloodline wins at Survivor Series, the 59-year-old veteran could cut a promo explaining his actions, claiming he was forced to align with The Rock because The Great One is their boss. Heyman could say that, as the ultimate opportunist, his survival came first, and when The Final Boss offered him a chance to thrive, he couldn’t refuse.
He could justify his betrayal by explaining that while he once stood by Roman Reigns, he saw his power slipping, and aligning with him was no longer the smartest move.
Heyman could say The Rock’s vision was far greater, and his future with The OG Bloodline was uncertain. Heyman would then emphasize that his loyalty has always been to himself, and with the 10-time World Champion, he has secured his place in WWE history.
